MEMBERS INNOVATIVE ACTIVITIES

CCS

Carbon Capture and storage is the process of capturing waste CO2 from large point sources, such as fossil fuel power plants, transporting it to a storage site, and depositing it where it will not enter the atmosphere. The aim is to prevent the release of large quantities of CO2 into the atmosphere.

Gasunie

Rotterdam Energy Port

Rotterdam wants to bind new, clean sources of energy to the port. Biomass is one of the main exponents in this respect. An important form of clean electricity generation is the co-firing of biomass in the form of wood chips in coal-fired power plants.

Fluxys Belgium S.A.

Port of Antwerp and Fluxys team up for CO2 capture

In the first phase, Antwerp Port Authority and Fluxys are studying the feasibility of solutions for capturing CO2 from industry in the port, transporting it by pipeline or ship and finally re-using or storing it. If the results of the feasibility study are positive then the aim is to jointly promote practical projects.
